Introduction

How to Read This Manual
Installation
• Install in a place which is level, dry and neither too hot nor too cold—between 5°C and 35°C (41°F and 95°F).
• Install the System in a location with adequate ventilation to prevent internal heat buildup inside the System.
DO NOT install the System in a location near heat sources, or in a place subject to direct sunlight, excessive dust or vibration.
• Leave sufficient distance between the System and the TV.
• Keep the speakers away from the TV to avoid interference with TV.
Power sources
• When unplugging the System from the wall outlet, always pull on the plug, not the AC power cord.
DO NOT handle the AC power cord with wet hands.
Moisture condensation
Moisture may condense on the lenses inside the System in the following cases:
• After starting to heat the room
• In a damp room
• If the System is brought directly from a cold to a warm place
Should this occur, the System may malfunction. In this case, leave the System turned on for a few hours until the moisture evaporates, unplug the AC power cord, then plug it in again.
Others
• Should any metallic object or liquid fall into the System, unplug the AC power cord and consult your dealer before operating any further.
To make this manual as simple and easy-to-understand as possible, we have adapted the following methods:

To connect the AM loop antenna
1 Hold
2 Insert
• If the AM loop antenna wire or speaker cords are covered with vinyl, remove the vinyl to expose the tip of the antenna by twisting the vinyl.
• Make sure the antenna conductors do not touch any other terminals, connecting cords and power cord. Also, keep the antennas away from metallic parts of the System, connecting cords, and the AC power cord. This could cause poor reception.
To connect the speaker cords
Connect the right speaker to the RIGHT terminals, and the left speaker to the LEFT terminals.
1 Hold
3 Release
IMPORTANT
The speakers are magnetically shielded to avoid color distortions on TVs. However, if not installed properly, it may cause color distortions. So, pay attention to the following when installing the speakers.
• When placing the speakers near a TV set, turn off the TV’s main power switch or unplug it before installing the speakers. Then wait at least 30 minutes before turning on the TV’s main power switch again.
Some TVs may still be affected even though you have followed the above. If this happens, move the speakers away from the TV.
AV COMPU LINK remote control system
This system allows you to use JVC’s TV with simple operations; by starting playing back a disc, the TV automatically turns on and changes the input mode to the appropriate position so that you can view the playback picture.
• To use AV COMPU LINK, you need to connect the System and the TV by using a cord with monaural mini­plugs (not supplied) in addition to the video input/output connection through the COMPONENT jacks, S-VIDEO jack or VIDEO (composite) jack on the rear.
3 Release
2 Insert
When connecting the speaker cords, match the polarity of the speaker terminals:
• For LOW terminals: Red cord to (+) and black cord to (–).
• For HIGH terminals: Grey cord to (+) and blue cord to (–).
• DO NOT connect more than one speaker to each terminal.
• DO NOT allow the conductor of the speaker cords to be in touch with the metallic parts of the System.

DVD Video—digital audio formats
The System can play back the following digital audio formats.
Linear PCM:
format used for CDs and most studio masters.
Dolby Digital:
Dolby Laboratories, which enables multi-channel encode to create the realistic surround sound.
DTS (Digital Theater Systems):
audio, developed by Digital Theater Systems, Inc., which enables multi-channel like Dolby Digital. As the compression ratio is lower than for Dolby Digital, it provides wider dynamic range and better separation.
When playing a multi-channel encoded DVD, the System properly converts these multi-channel signals into 2 channels, and emits the downmixed sound from the speakers.
To enjoy the powerful sound of these multi-channel encoded DVDs,
with a proper built-in decoder to the digital output terminal on the rear.
IMPORT ANT : Bef ore playing a disc, make sure of the following...
• Turn on the TV and select an appropriate input mode on the TV to view the pictures or on-screen displays on the TV screen.
• For disc playback, you can change the initial setting to your preference. See “Setup Menu Operations” on page 30.
If ” appears on the TV screen when you press a button,
